Looking good!

My Dad has a pond. Like him, I'm sure you're finding that goldfish get HUGE in an outdoor pond. He only feeds them a few days a week, they still get very fat through insects, worms, etc. They've been known to almost jump out of the water to get a fly...

Thank you al for the nice comments!
Jap maple:Ive never seen one planted that close to a pond,also,I have 2!
Lotus:It actually just started to get elevated leaves,the pond doesnt get enough sunlight for it.
Goldfish:Mostly I have koi in there ,they will get huge,30" in a few more years if they keep eating like they have been.
